Determination of the spins and parities of low-lying states inMo99by means of theMo100(d→, t)Mo99andMo98(d→, p)Mo99reactions

Using the vector analyzing powers of the ($\overrightarrow{d}, t$) and ($\overrightarrow{d}, p$) reactions the spins of twenty-one states of ${}_{}{}^{99}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Mo}$ have been determined. Below an excitation energy of 1 MeV, these spin assignments agree with those made on the basis of the ratio of $S_{\mathrm{lj}}$ values in ($d, t$) and ($d, p$) reactions leading to the same final states. New assignments have been made for seven states above 1 MeV. The results have been compared with calculations made by Roy and Choudhury for the even parity states. Fair agreement has been obtained.
